January!

I just wanted to type anything here to see 2010 come up on the side bar!!!....I'm chuffed that I managed to maintain ANY type of a blog since 2008, so 2010 is going to be a fun year of just using it as often as I can.  It is so much fun putting pics up on it that when it doesn't happen it is disappointing!
Anyway, heres to 2010 being a SUPER CHARGED CREATIVE BONANZA!!  : )

Happy Lunar Eclipse - partial of course

December

Hello!  Well December has crept in nicely and now we seem to be gettin to the end of it, and my poor blog is sadly neglected due to festivities.  However,  I did manage to get to the Dublin Comic Jam so go visit http://www.dublincomicjam.blogspot.com/ for a gander at the fun comic strips created...there was definitely a theme, and it wasn't just Christmas!! : 0

November

Busy, busy month, oh so busy...amazingly busy...I'd like to say that I was off helping people and discovering a new species of plant but the simple fact is that November has passed me by with lightening speed and I have very little to show for it!!  I'm busy doing other things alright...but mostly not busy in areas that would help my blog stay alive.  So for now I'm just typing to keep my foot in the door of having posted something for this month...but plan on having a delightfully productive and delicious December!!...(and jotting this down as a how not to keep a blog experience!)

Comics in Technicolour!

Well we got our comics, all 85 of them...in a glorious array of colours that were far removed from the one we wanted or proofed.  Bit of a cock up to say the least as the text and description on the back can't be read unless your eyes are blurry...so to say there is disappointment when we were due to have the copies in the shops today is a serious understatement!  Here is a beautiful technicolour arrangement for you - you might need shades tho!

and the original one ...

Murder Room job

This is one of those projects that I started, put down, took up again...stopped to do something else and then re-started. I'm going to put up bits of what I've done here, but ultimately, it looks like a re-start and set a deadline and be done with it is needed. It's a great story, and deserves the time and attention.

They Came From Outer Space & 24hr Comics

The comic is due out this week which is going to be fun, and was featured passively at the 24hr comic challenge as a way to distract other punters...it kinda worked, but not for long! The 24 Comic Challenge was really great, the workshops were amazing and well attended and overall Cliodhna and her band of merry men did a fantastic job of organizing it all.

The comic will be available to buy online too, so please email longstonecomics@gmail.com to secure your copy if you can't make it to any of the comic shops in town, or if you live outside Dublin. Here is the double page spread I did for it, hope you like!
